Title: [Plugin: Links shortcode] Links doesn't work Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # [Plugin: Links shortcode] Links doesn't work * Resolved [jruiz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jruiz/) * (@jruiz) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-links-shortcode-links-doesnt-work/) * I tried many combinations, like: [links category_name=”karate”] (in a page).. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/links-shortcode/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/links-shortcode/) Viewing 1 replies (of 1 total) * Plugin Author [Maarten](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maartenjs/) * (@maartenjs) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-links-shortcode-links-doesnt-work/#post-2478855) * I’m not sure why this would not work. Could you have a look at [http://blog.bigcircle.nl/2010/07/social-media-links/](http://blog.bigcircle.nl/2010/07/social-media-links/) On that page different categories of links are shown, per category. The first tag for example used is [links category_name=”Social media trends”] You should use the exact Category name (“Karate”?), and not the category slug (“karate”?). I hope this helps!
